There are a few (civilians) who do live on the Antarctic Penninsula.
The rest are usually research scientists who are temporarily stationed in various bases around the continent.
Perhaps, you should contact some of these people and find out what living in Antarctica is really like.
Many tour groups also visit this continent. This is another option. Better hurry though, because the short Antarctic summer is rapidly approaching.
There are 7 bases on Antartica, 2 of those US ( Admunson-Scott and McMurdo ) Summer is already here, with tempetures of -4°F at Admunson-Scott and 40°F in Cape Horn, near the pennensula. I've never heard of a tour group there. Sounds too expensive! Mabey if I do live there, I could found Antartica's first town...
There are a few South Americans (Chileans / Argentinians, both, can't remember) who are experimenting with permanent residence in Antarctica. They beat you to 'first town' status.
There are several tour companies and private individuals that do go there for adventure travel. Yes, it is very expensive. You will need to research these.
The scientific research bases are usually closed to all but qualified persons.
Then you admit that you are sneaky and lazy?
I think that you should carefully re-think this.
Antarctica is an extremely harsh environment, in most places and most of the time. It requires careful planning, equipment and supplies in order to survive there.
Death due to reckless adventure, is a very real possibility.

Why not become a Science Professional and request to be stationed there?

It would be funner to sneak in ;D, plus, that requires years of training and a whole bunch of other crap.
